Maybe you’ll see Spider Man, Frodo Baggins or Dr. Who walking down Summer Street this weekend! Fan Expo Boston – formerly Comic Con – is in town Friday thru Sunday at the Boston Convention Center. Over 30,000 people are expected to attend so there could be some traffic and parking limitations in neighborhood – but there will definitely be lots and lots of costumes.
Celebrity guests expected to be appearing this weekend include Ewan McGregor, Elijah Woods, and Kevin Smith. You can see a full list here!
There will be plenty of autograph sessions, photo ops and the Masters of Cosplay Grand Prix: The Bay State Qualifier!
On Friday we saw a group of Harley Quinns walking down the street.
